Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Chapter 998: Chapter 995: Are You Trying to Take Advantage of Me?

Xu Wendong smiled and said, ”That depends on whether Sister Taozi knows my preferences.”

Yang Tao blushed, hesitated for a moment, and nervously said, ”Um, how about I show it tonight!”

???

Xu Wendong looked puzzled.

He originally meant to ask Yang Tao to cook a dish he likes to show his gratitude, but she... seemed to have misunderstood his meaning.

Nonetheless, Xu Wendong didn’t say much. On the contrary, he was quite looking forward to the evening.

Because he also didn’t know what method Yang Tao would use to express herself.

It was already three in the afternoon when they arrived at Jiang Xueyao’s house.

At this moment.

Miss Jiang had already had a lavish seafood feast, a bucket of seafood instant noodles.

Although Xu Wendong and Yang Tao didn’t have lunch, both of them had sampled some free pastries at the supermarket earlier, so they didn’t feel hungry.

”You two should first organize your luggage and daily necessities,” Jiang Xueyao lazily curled up on the sofa, watching an idol drama.

She added, ”Oh, right, Xu Wendong will stay in the guest room, and Taozi will stay across from me.”

Yang Tao: ”Okay.”

After that, Xu Wendong and Yang Tao got busy, first arranging their luggage and daily necessities. By the time they were done, the sky had darkened considerably.

Afterward, Yang Tao put on an apron and entered the kitchen, busy preparing dinner.

Xu Wendong stayed listlessly in his room, scrolling through his phone.

After all, he was now Jiang Xueyao’s personal bodyguard; they were still in a professional relationship, not even ordinary friends.

Since it was a professional relationship, he had to know his place and couldn’t let Jiang Xueyao find him annoying.

Knock, knock, knock!

Out of nowhere.

A sudden knocking sounded.

Xu Wendong quickly slipped on his slippers and opened the door, only to see a woman in a black strappy long dress.

A simple diamond necklace hung around her slender neck, gleaming with a cold luster.

The dress clung tightly to her alluring figure, outlining perfect curves.

The skirt was slightly loose, flowing and elegant, swaying with the wind, exuding a noble and cool charm.

Jiang Xueyao’s skin was as white as snow, and the black dress accentuated her complexion, making it even more alluring.

Her eyes were firm and cold, as if seeing through everything. Her lips were painted with vivid red lipstick, like a bloody rose, blooming with fatal allure.

Her long hair cascaded like a waterfall, gently draping down her back, adding a touch of sensuality and allure.

Xu Wendong politely asked, ”President Jiang, how can I assist you?”

Jiang Xueyao suspiciously stared at Xu Wendong, ”Do you really understand medicine?”

Xu Wendong nearly burst into laughter.

Isn’t this exactly what I’m best at?

Even so, he said, ”I have studied traditional medicine for a while. I wouldn’t say I’m an expert, but I have some insights.”

Jiang Xueyao asked, ”Then do you know what illness I have?”

Xu Wendong looked Jiang Xueyao up and down, observing her complexion.

After all, with his medical skills, just using sight from the traditional medicine diagnostic method of ’looking, listening, asking, and feeling,’ he could see if a person’s body was unwell.

And at the moment Xu Wendong observed her, Jiang Xueyao suddenly felt a chill down her spine.

It was as if the man’s eyes in front of her held a mysterious magic power, able to peek into her body.

Even capable of seeing through the secrets of her heart.

Xu Wendong said, ”You have severe anxiety, irritability, and mild depression.”

”Besides that, your immunity is also very poor, and you frequently suffer from insomnia.”

”Even accompanied by symptoms of chest tightness and shortness of breath.”

Jiang Xueyao showed an incredible expression, her beautiful eyes full of shock. She knew some traditional Chinese medicine was indeed miraculous.

But she didn’t expect that Xu Wendong, at such a young age, could see through her current condition.

”Many of the symptoms you mentioned match my current situation, but how could you tell I have depression?” Jiang Xueyao looked at Xu Wendong in disbelief.

In this world, only she and a foreign psychologist knew about her depression, not even her closest family members knew.

Xu Wendong said, ”Traditional medicine emphasizes ’looking, listening, asking, and feeling.’ Although it can discern physical health issues, it is limited to physical health.”

”Depression is a psychological disorder, which cannot be identified with the naked eye alone.”

Jiang Xueyao was puzzled, ”Then how did you know I have depression?”

”Of course, it was a guess,” Xu Wendong continued, ”The previous symptoms you mentioned were all caused by congested chest Qi.”

”And when someone doesn’t have good sleep, they are prone to anxiety, irritability, and over time, they can develop depression.”

Jiang Xueyao suddenly realized, ”Is this illness easy to treat?”

Xu Wendong answered, ”You can take herbal medicine and combine it with massage to be cured.”

Jiang Xueyao frowned, ”Like the massages you gave Taozi to treat her illness?”

Xu Wendong nodded, ”Yes.”

A cold gleam flashed in Jiang Xueyao’s eyes, ”Do you really understand medicine, or are you up to something sinister?”

”Uh...” Xu Wendong looked innocent, ”President Jiang, you can ask Sister Taozi if I know medicine.”

”Besides, I just mentioned a method to treat congested chest Qi. I never said I would treat you myself, right?”

”Illness does not fear a doctor; there’s no need for you to take it this way.”

Jiang Xueyao snorted coldly, ”Even if you have some abilities, it’s not much; I came to find you not because of these conditions.” She said, turning to leave Xu Wendong’s bedroom.

Xu Wendong hesitated for a moment and said loudly, ”President Jiang, you fear heat, avoid fire!”

Jiang Xueyao’s figure suddenly halted in place. She turned around with disbelief in her beautiful eyes, ”How do you know these things?”

For the first time, Jiang Xueyao felt that Xu Wendong might have some tricks up his sleeve.

Xu Wendong smiled and said, ”There are two reasons: First, this residential area in the Magic Capital can only be considered a mid-range area. Given your social status and wealth, living here is already quite out of place.”

”But the fact that the area overlooks a river suggests you like water.”

”This house was probably carefully chosen by you. If it weren’t for that river, even if the house was given to you for free, you wouldn’t have looked at it, right?”

Jiang Xueyao subconsciously swallowed, looking at Xu Wendong with a much more serious gaze.

Xu Wendong continued, ”Second, all your home’s furniture and decorations are in light colors, with no red at all.”

”Moreover, even your lip color is a light shade.”

”Do you truly dislike red?”

Xu Wendong chuckled and shook his head, ”It’s not that you dislike red, but you fear red.”

”In feng shui, red represents passion, vigor, prosperity, and good fortune.”

”It belongs to the Fire Attribute, with the function of facilitating the five elements and enhancing wealth.”

”Red can inspire people’s enthusiasm and vitality, bringing positive energy, so in feng shui, it’s considered an auspicious color.”

”However, red is not universally applicable in all situations. Due to its strong fiery nature, inappropriate use might disrupt feng shui.”

Jiang Xueyao looked at Xu Wendong incredulously, ”Nowadays, do bodyguards have to know so much?”
